Know your constitution (Prakruti)

 

To know more about yourself, attempt the following questionnaire and know the results of your body constitution which is termed as "PRAKRITI" in Ayurveda. Base your answers according to your total life experiences, and not just how you feel these past few days. Basically According to Ayurveda, there are seven body types: mono-types (Vata, Pitta or Kapha predominant), dual types (Vata - Pitta, Pitta - Kapha or, Kapha -Vata), and equal types, (Vata, Pitta and Kapha in equal proportions). Every individual has a unique combination of these three Doshas. This questionnaire explains your body constitution physically and mentally both.
